ATO (tax office) payments by credit card

[lilkid28]

It seems Activ can't be used on Deft also anymore? Seemed to work back in mid 2024.

Just getting clear is that ATO via sniip or sniip proper so you couldn't say BPay levies (as DEFT payment was not an option)?

apologies for being unclear, yes it wasn't ATO, but sniip to a biller that is usually fine with Coles/vanilla cards

sorry to labour the point - so it was to a specific biller on Sniip rather than having blocked Sniip?

now my memory fails me, I don't actually remember if the error was on adding the payment method, or when making the payment... Tried looking through my records, but I haven't used sniip at all since then

I tried those $1000 visa cards from officeworks about 2-3 years ago. Tried to pay ATO, no dice and from memory, tried to add to sniip (which was fine from memory) and then tried to pay ATO, Activ Visa blocked ATO's bpay biller number so no way to pay ato with it.

I've got a decent (enough) bill to pay soon. Have never used the third party processors, but will have to look into them.
I can see sniip has a 5k QFF bonus for new customers.
Same with pay.com.au - 25k QBR.

Are there any others with bonuses - referral or otherwise?

I have used Sniip for some years.

Recently I made use of a 20k QBR pay.com.au bonus in relation to $10k of payments.

That has expired.

Currently pay.com has a referral which gives an effective 8k airline points to both referrer and referee

I suggest you look to which facility where you can maximise newbie bonus benefits.

pay.com or pay.com.au?
The latter currently has a better offer - 25k QBR bonus for $10k of payments.

I could also get the ANZ QBR Visa which has a 100k bonus ($6k spend) and a 0.5 points per dollar earn rate for ATO.

Pay is slightly lower on the surcharge on the top plan which is free for the few month(s) for new members

Do the former anyway. However there will be a fee for that .5 points - you can likely do better.

This entire thread is about getting best bang for buck.
